Abstract: Custom communication alert techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a triggering condition is detected by one or more computing devices that is found by searching data using one or more extraction rules of a late-binding schema. Responsive to the detection of the triggering condition of the alert, a communication is formed by the one or more computing devices that corresponds to the alert and that includes one or more tokens based on one or more values of the data taken from fields defined by the one or more extraction rules. The communication is caused to be transmitted by the one or more computing device via a network for receipt by at least one computing device of an intended recipient of the communication.

Abstract: In embodiments of field value search drill down, a search system exposes a search interface that displays one or more events returned as a search result set. A field-value pair can be emphasized in the field-value pairs of an event displayed in the search interface, and a menu is displayed with search options that are selectable to operate on the emphasized field-value pair of the event. The menu includes the search options to add search criteria of the emphasized field-value pair to a search command in a search bar of the search interface, exclude the search criteria of the emphasized field-value pair from a search, or create a new data search based on the emphasized field-value pair. A selection of one of the search options in the menu can be received, and the search command in the search bar is updated based on the search option that is selected.

Abstract: A method includes causing display to a user of at least one event of a first result set from a first pipelined search on events at an event source. Each event comprises a time stamp and a portion of machine data. A selection of a command is received from the user. The selection is to extend the first pipelined search with the selected command in a second pipelined search. The system selects between the first result set and the event source for execution of the second pipelined search based on an analysis of the selected command and at least one command of the first pipelined search. Based on the selecting being of the first result set, display to the user is caused of at least one event of a second result set from the execution of the second pipelined search on the first result set.

Abstract: In various embodiments, methods and systems for presenting a search interface with search query history based functionality is provided. A search query history store comprising search queries is accessed. The search query history store includes search queries executed in a search computing system. A search query comprises one or more commands. A plurality of search queries retrieved from the search query history store is displayed on the search interface using a placement style. A placement style, such as an indent style, provides a structure for separating and arranging commands of a plurality of search queries displayed. The search interface further provides for receiving a selection of at least a portion of a search query from the plurality of search queries to initiate actions or execute actions based on the selection. The search interface includes a search input interface, such as a search bar, where the selection of the portion of the search query is displayed based on a selected action.

Abstract: A facility for defining an event subtype using examples is described. The facility displays events identified among machine-generated data. The facility receives user input selecting a first subset of the events as examples of an event subtype. In response to receiving the user input, the facility displays a second subset of the events predicted to belong to the event subtype on the basis of the examples of the event subtype.
